just hearing from some people that are kiwi fans, not much to it. but would certainly be a good buy

And also According to nrl news ( about Hinchy) '' the mail is that the deal is all done, its a matter of time when its announced '' hmm... starting to think its true

Would love Craig to get someone young and dominate to partner with Jesse.

The club is minutes away from announcing the re-signing of five players, including some big name ones.

According to reports, Hinchy's is until the end of 2016. Wasn't mentioned how long the contract is for in the press release though.

Filling the gaps for the missing players in the predicted squad for 2013 above:

5. Mahe Fonua
13. David Stagg (from the Bulldogs) - to replace Lowrie, who I think will leave
17. Anthony Quinn - out of Lowrie and Quinny, Lowrie will be the one to leave
23. Rory Kostjasyn
24. Jaiman Lowe
25. Shane Shackleton (from Parramatta)
26. Michael Greenfield

Great news on all fronts and chalk up for yet another one the Mole got wrong...... I think Lowrie will stay if the club wants him to. Read an interview with him last week and said he has now settled in well and would like to re-sign. But again it'll come down to what the club has got to offer him and what he's offered elsewhere.

Surprised that Fonua hasn't been signed up yet. Almost sounds like last year's Elijah Niko. Great news about those 5 signings though, Vave especially.

Any other possibilities for promotions from our U20 side? Denny? Young? Any others?
